What the gurus are saying
Hydrates and plumps without feeling heavy, making this lightweight essence particularly good for oily skin days when you want a hydrating step that won't weigh down your routine. The fermented ingredients (rice, algae, and green tea) are what experts credit for these benefits. It absorbs quickly enough to work well as a prep layer before other products.
